Traditional Laskin nozzle and thermal aerosol generators are designed for use with photometers which commonly require 10µg/liter or greater of an aerosol challenge for leak testing/sizing. Concentrations of 10µg/liter are on the order of 100x greater than what is optimal for leak testing/sizing with a particle counter.

For filter integrity testing using a particle counter, filters and filter systems typically require challenges in excess of six million particles (≥ 0.3µm) per cubic foot of air (2.1 x 108 per cubic meter) when leak sizing at a scan rate of 2”/sec.

Note: **six million particles (≥ 0.3µm) per cubic foot of air (2.1 x 108 per cubic meter) is approximately equivalent to 0.02 µg/liter of PAO

Lighthouse aerosol generators are designed to work at a wide range of output levels in order of optimal particle challenge concentrations for testing small (100CFM and below) or large (up to 75,000 CFM) system with a single unit.
